WOW it is already September 13

How can this be! We are almost halfway through September. The air is beautiful this morning...crisp and clean and cool. The frogs and crickets are quiet and a calm has come over everything. This is my favorite time when all of the day is still potential and the excitement is in the unknown.

What is going on in the life of a self-employed musician right now?? I realized that it's been a while since I have actually played a musical instrument. So, today I am picking up my guitar and my drums and PLAYING music. Time moves so quickly that I personally can get caught so up in the paperwork and other basic stuff of running a business that I forget what is the center of my creative life....actually playing music. My Kurzweil keyboard is going to feel like I have forgotten it. Poor thing!

Does anyone else go this through this??

We are headed toward the change of the baktun in the Mayan long count. As you know, I am connected to the Maya through many personal experiences of travel in the Mayan lands and through my music. 13.0.0.0.0 is the new baktun which arrives on the winter solstice, December 21, 2012. This is the equivalent of our millenium change, but much more significant and powerful since it only happens once every 5126 years. It also happens to be my birthday. How cool is that!!

Ancient/Future Symphony celebrates this baktun change and our understanding that time is fluid, and that life is so much larger than our own personal lives. It extends from the ancient through the present and into the future. When I wrote this symphony, it was an outpouring of love. Love supports the flow of all time and space. In October I will add the Mayan Dream/Dancers of the Flame album to my specials....and then in November the VIDA album....all building and celebrating the enormity of change that is coming to all of our lives, and mine in particular.

I continue to celebrate the heart and soul of my mom as she walks the journey from this world to the next. Along with my dad, she has brought forward the love of nature and the creativity that brightens and inspires my life today. Love to all.

In the Natural Timing of Things

Hi everyone..... Two weeks ago I recorded the final 10 minutes of the Wisdom Ablaze album, received the digital CD for the artwork of the cover (Ann Beeching original) and the music master is ready to go to National Media. It is part of a three CD series on Wisdom. The Wisdom music began with the album " A Celebration of Life and Love " which was released in 2012.  The third track is called Wisdom, and this album explores the various aspects of living in the warmth of Wisdom Fire:  Dancing in Lightness of Spirit, Sacred Voice, Woven in Gentleness, and A Gentle Touch.  Track three, Wisdom, emerges from Track one: At The Cave, and Track two:  Sunrise. A year later, I completed Wisdom Enters The World In Love . This powerful music again brings the place of the Wisdom Cave (Track one), the Wisdom Mountain (track two)….both sacred places of birth…..then we have the aspects of Wisdom:  (track four) Wisdom Dances the Waters, (track five)Her Gentle Voice, (track six) Fire With

Music supports the world around me

Several weeks ago I received a phone call from a hospice nurse in Honolulu. She had a patient who was dying and listening to The Beloved was the only thing that could calm her down. She later called to say that this person had died peacefully while listening to The Beloved. That is why I do what I do. Creating and performing the music that comes to me is not done to sell music and make sales, but to bring into the world a quality of beauty and connection into the individual's inner world that is transformative. The ducks in this photo were hatched right outside of my mom's front window. The mother duck came out of the marshes to build her nest where mom could see it every day. Aren't they cute! It's amazing the beauty and the joy in nature. My mom is going through an important journey in her life right now, and family is very supportive of her in this time of transition. Thus, you are not hearing as much from me, but we are alive and well. Mayan Dream Producti

The Journey

This photo was taken in a nature preserve in Indiana and it is now covered in snow. We are under a winter storm warning...expecting another "many" inches of snow and it is beautiful. I loved this path because it reminds me of Copan, Honduras. I chose this photo for today's Musings because it calls forth the journey into the unknown which is my life and yours. The economic news yesterday was very bleak.. a couple of million people without work and without health insurance. Many millions more without enough work to actually buy enough food and to pay for the basics of life. The stock market falling....companies closing or downsizing. The political news was bleak....war.....terror....poverty across the world. And yet.....the unknown journey continues. We don't know really what this means. The planet is massively shaking off one form of living life based on an outer and inner masculine structure that created an artificial and very destructive life. The sacred femi
